Hello freak bitches. Today is Wednesday, November 1st, which means sober October is over. Yeah, I have saved my indulgence to be here with you, Owen Benjamin. It's such an honor. We're gonna drink some William Wolf bourbon. It's perfect. I'm not sure where I got this. I believe somebody gave it to me. I hope it's not poison. There you go buddy. We gotta trust the wolf. I have a little of this, then we'll spark up a dupe. There it is. Get the party started. Cheers, sir. Thanks for being here, man. That's on October, man. Thank you. Thank you. I had a not sober October. I bet you did. I saw some of your tweets. Owen Benjamin likes to go off. I appreciate that. You know what, man? That's a fucking, that's a lost thing. The ability to go off. Yeah. That's crazy shit. Everybody's so goddamn scared of repercussions, of being protested. I mean, everybody's being hashtag called out. I know. And it immobilizes people. It's like that's why I like this season of Stranger Things. You watching that? Mm-hmm. I like Hopper. Like the cop? Because he'll get pissed and be like, sorry, it's because I just care so damn much. You could do that shit in the 80s. Yeah, you could. Sweet taste of marijuana. That is a marijuana. My first marijuana in 31 days. All right, travel on us. Oh, that's nice. How's it feel? How's it feel? Ah, it feels good to be back. It feels good. I missed it. I tell you what, though, I enjoyed being sober. Not that I needed to be sober, not like I was junky with the problem, but it's nice to take a reset. I'm going to do it every year. I'm going to do sober October every year. You heard it. It's good. So gear yourselves up, ladies and gentlemen. Eleven months from now, join on in. Maybe Owen won't. What do you think? No, I'm in, man. Let's do it. I'll do sober October. Because this year I just hit my foot with an axe. You're so our living in the boonies, man. I don't know anybody in L.A. that could tell me that way. I wouldn't call the police and say, I don't know why the fuck he's swinging an axe, but please check. Well, yeah, because my brother does tree work, so I usually wear the boots. We have fires every night. I really like tinkering to make the fire good, and then I crack some beers, and then my family hangs out, and then they go inside and I crack more beers. I had to chop some more wood, and I didn't put on the good boots. My axe just careened off it and hit me in the foot. I didn't have time to get stitches, so I just put a maxi pad on it, and it worked. How big was the cut? It was pretty legit. They say you should use whenever possible. If you can't get anywhere, you could use crazy glue. I've never tried that, but I know a lot of people who have. I know fighters who have gotten cut in camp and just used crazy glue. Crazy glued up the cut and then made it to the fight. That's awesome. They didn't let anybody know that they had a preexisting injury. Those guys are hard as nails. There's a lot of them that they'll go into the octagon with some crazy shit. What is this? Flee? What happened to him? Flee plays doctor with super glue. Most people cut themselves badly, head to the emergency room, but when Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flee cut his thumb open, aggressively strumming his guitar during a show. He didn't have time for surgery, so he picked up a bottle of super glue, sealed the cut like any good shirtless rockstar would. Yeah, I would do that in a heartbeat. Cuts are like wounds. I'm all about just doing shit like that. It's like broken bones. That's when I know I got to set it or something. That seems like a Flee move. He seems like a psycho. He pulled it out of his sock cock. I remember they did an article once and he was talking about how important his pre-performance shits are. I was like, yeah, they are important, but why are we ashamed of bowel movements? Why are we ashamed of potty? I don't know. We should be honored to get rid of toxins. Jamie and I have been talking about it openly because you've got some new bathrooms for the studio that have those Japanese toilets that shoot hot water up your butt. Oh yeah. And they're warm. So you sit in the toilet, it's heated like right away. It's like a warm, comforting, like, come in, come in and shit. Come in and just relax those bowels and let it go. Let it go. That's awesome, man. I'm real meat and potatoes with my shits. I just, I get in and I get out, but if there's another level to it, like what you're describing, I want in.
